CHILDREN OF THE FOX - KEVIN SANDS GEBUNDEN

NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEARAMAZON BEST BOOK OF THE MONTHThis stunning tale of betrayal  trickery
and friendship takes the reader on a wild ride. School Library Journal Ocean's Eleven meets The
False Prince in this thrilling heist story for young readers  in which five kids with unusual
talents are brought together to commit an impossible crime. Failure is unacceptable ... but
success could be deadly. From the bestselling author of the Blackthorn Key series  this
magic-infused fantasy brings together a ragtag group of kids to pull off a crime so difficult 
countless adults have already tried and failed. Lured by the promise of more money than they've
ever dreamed of  five young criminals are hired to steal a heavily guarded treasure from the
most powerful sorcerer in the city. There's Callan the con artist  Meriel the expert at
acrobatics (and knives!)  Gareth the researcher  Lachlan who can obtain anything  and Foxtail 
whose mysterious eyeless mask doesn't hinder her ability to climb walls like a spider. Though
their shadowy backgrounds mean that they've never trusted anyone but themselves  the five must
learn to rely on each other in order to get the job done. But as Callan has been warned most of
his life  it's best to stay away from magic. It can turn on you at any moment  and make you
think you're the one running the con game  when in reality you're the one being fooled. Faced
with these unsurmountable odds  can the friends pull off this legendary heist  or has their
luck finally run out?
